My squire p-bass was tipped over while on a stand, it hit the hardwood floor and sounded like a couple of 2 by 4s being smacked together. Scared the shit out me, just the sound. Figured for sure something had to have snapped. Picked it up and, yep, still out of tune, but it was an easy fix...

You may want to take a look at DMSO(dimethyl sulfoxide). Proceed with caution, I am not suggesting or recommending DMSO, only throwing it out there for your own consideration. DMSO is/can be categorized as a solvent. Your skin does a damn good job of keeping things your skin comes into contact...

Drums all the way right, starting with kick, then snare(s), etc. Instruments all the way left, starting with bass, then guitars, keys. Vocals, turd polish and what not, they go in the middle. The kick and bass try to occupy some of the same frequency spectrum, so i find placing the bass all the...

Sure, but there is a difference between an artist and a singer. It is possible and at times is the case that a good artist/songwriter somewhat sucks at being a "good singer", and a good singer can suck at being an interpretive artist, lousy covers. The good news for the op I reckon is, often...

Fuck yeah, and Bitch. Has attitude. Guys like it, chicks like it-->as long as it isn't directed towards them/her, although in recent times some bitches wear the moniker as a badge of infamous honor.

I would think one must also take into consideration what type of singer you're working with, is the background of the singer one of doing pretty much strictly covers, or has the singer found her own voice and has the ability to interpret the song independent of an absolute blueprint to mimic...

seriously, the best chord is the "and" chord. you know the "and" chord, as in "aaaand he's a jolly good fellow...." etc etc etc, "aaaand...." best chord. most all of the best songs have a best chord, the and chord.

My pleasure brother. The wood is my ears, not your mix/levels. Call me a softy, but I really like this song. Dare I say, hit material, but perhaps of a different era or current adult contemp charts. My wife likes it also.

Very nice song, touching. The vocal almost has a Marty Balin quality at times. I mean that as a compliment. I'm not sure the drum pattern is gelling all the time, particularly in the intro and into the first verse. After about halfway through the 1st verse things mesh much better, then a repeat...

To each his own on your usual wet sound, although not my preference, time and place I can see it's worth genre wise. I like this dry sound. It has a Brian May-ish quality at times....though musically quite different, circa Queen 2 - Sheer Heart Attack album(s).

Saw Warren Haynes mentioned lately in one of these threads......he used to play with David Allen Coe way back when. A good player. To each his own, but I wouldn't exactly call Stevie Ray a virtuoso. He did what he did well. But to me it was kind of disappointing that that's all he did. So many...

I feel a new tag line coming on :laughings:

Dude, I ain't nobody's hero, but the truth is I kind of felt sorry for you, maybe you were getting ganged up on and just needed a chance for things to calm down a bit to state your case. No need to get pissy. I kind of stuck my neck out, you know? Besides, what are you asking and have you sold...

Dude :facepalm:, just :facepalm: do you seriously want to ratchet things back up again?

Ironic might not exactly be the word that comes to mind...something 'ronic maybe. I've never really liked gold hardware. Always seemed a gild the lily or polish a turd thing. Either way what's the point....plus gold doesn't wear well and looks like hell and cheap eventually. What're you asking...

You hope! What're you asking? Are you using "gold top" as a selling point, and why? Although it's not important that I do, I don't get it.

An experiment? :eek: Yeah, well, I wouldn't get too used to the quiet just yet. Just out of curiosity, how did it come about that you're able to now sell it for more than if it had remained a true gold top? Seems kind of a sin, somebody got rocks in their head, more money than sense/taste.

We're doing just fine, so far. Seemed unadvisable at best to go stripping an refinishing a gold top, but i don't reckon it turned out too bad. Whatsay you, y'all or whatever?

Just trying to help.....l? Good morning, grumpy!
